Houston Matters

On Monday’s Houston Matters: The Houston Jewish community reacts to the synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh. Then, Houstonian Jeanne Celestine-Lakin tells her story of surviving the Rwandan genocide. Plus, we learn why Sam Houston State wants to launch a new medical school. And Houston-based baseball writer Jesus Ortiz wraps up the World Series for us.

Also this hour: In April of 1994, Jeanne Celestine-Lakin was a young schoolgirl in Rwanda when a wave of genocide began against her and her fellow Tutstis. At only nine years old, her parents and most of her adult relatives were killed. Now living in Houston, she’s written a book about her loss of innocence and fight for survival, called A Voice in the Darkness.
